  • This show was honestly and disappointingly JUST OK. I love Michael Jackson and his music and I was expecting to be blown away by absolutely every aspect of his show. Honestly anything less is not really worthy of Michael Jackson and this show tried, but it missed the mark. We had great seats in the center of the third row from the stage so we were able to see absolutely everything. If you don't get seats right up front you'll be fine, but sitting in the back will leave you squinting because there's a lot going on and it's not your typical Cirque show where it involves the whole audience, or everything is happening around you; everything happens in the front. The show started out great with the guitarist and the lights and the dancers and it got me really excited for the rest of the show, but honestly after that initial performance the good songs and performances were few and far between. It became quickly apparent that the guitarist was out of place aside from the first song and MAYBE one other and they were kind of just throwing her in there every once in a while to justify paying her. The female dancers out shined the male dancers by far and were the best part of the show. They seemed to actually want to be there whereas the male dancers just phoned it in. A lot of the dancing was repetitive and wasn't as on point as you would expect from a dancer at an actual Michael Jackson show. There was also a pole dancer in there who was awesome and is definitely not being paid enough. The theme of the show had a MAJOR disconnect from the storyline that was going on with the kids that ran around throughout the show. They were really grasping at straws on this one. Also it was a major let down because each one of them gets an MJ item and is able to dance like him more or less after they acquire it and as an audience member you're expecting the last guy to do the best MJ impression because he's been trying the longest to get the glove and he gets it and does nothing. Seriously??? Also, is it just me or is it super stereotypical that the Asian girl doesn't really do any MJ moves but does some half ass karate to "Jam"? All of the slow songs honestly could have been skipped except for the last one. They were unrecognizable to people who aren't true MJ fans (I went with my bf and he had no idea they existed before the show) and they either had only one person dancing (2 of them) in an OK fashion, doing the whole performance on a rope because they have to throw something in to justify the "Cirque" label, or there's really nothing much going on. Literally two performers just sat on the stage while one person danced through one of the songs (kinda really boring). The only reason I said they could leave in the last song was because they had a hologram of Michael dancing which was honestly the best performance of the whole show and they could've have made the whole thing that way and I would have been more entertained.
